Are there any cartoony mascot platformer video games where the main protagonist is a non-anthro animal?

One Piece will never end.

It's gonna outlast human civilization.
Dude I gotta be real with you

Not only is this joke repetitive, it's also ignorant as ****. You have never displayed any knowledge of One Piece as a story, you clearly know nothing about what's currently going on in the manga and you refuse to listen to people who actually do.

It's not funny, and as a big One Piece fan I really resent the implication that it doesn't have a direction it's heading towards and has no point. That's also why the comparison to Simpsons, Family Guy and Spongebob also doesn't work because those are episodic shows with loose continuity whereas One Piece is serialized and has a continuity that's anything but loose

Watched the first episode of Johto Journeys.

Man. Totodile is such a little guy. Every time he appeared on screen I could feel the dopamine hitting my brain.

I always found Gen 2 to be one of the weakest generations in terms of new pokemon introduced but like, but it still has a lot of good ones. And I hardly got to see any of the Gen 2 anime as a kid so maybe watching some of it will help me appreciate some of those monsters a little more.

That game is still an absolute banger, by the way.
Thanks for the examples. I meant toon platformers where the protagonist is an animal that aren't anthro, but ok
Then there's Rayman, Mario, Astro Bot, Bub and Bob in Rainbow Islands (don't ask), and (technically) Classic Mega Man.

14 - Monster Prom XXL
13 - Alan Wake
12 - Fortnite Chapter 5
11 - Splatoon 3 Side Order
10 - Yakuza 3
9 - Resident Evil
8 - Princess Peach Showtime
7 - Dragon Ball Sparking Zero
6 - Marvel Rivals

No bad games this year, I quite enjoyed everything on this list, took me a while to enjoy Alan Wake, but I really enjoy it looking back at it, and Monster Prom is just not what I expected, still a fun game.

What do you wanna look like in the comic
Hot witch with red hair. Haircut similar to Yukari from Persona 3

Not too many notes aside from that, an artist friend of mine is actually currently working on a new avatar for me so depending on how long that will take I might have a good reference ready for you soon

the S.E.E.S./Shadow Ops crew casually getting older and older overtime…meaning Koromaru is either close to or is already dead…

unless Koromaru said **** death and became an immortal diety

So first off I truly apologize for giving you that impression.

My whole jokes revolving around this actually had more to do with how One Piece (1997-Present) has been going on longer than other Shonen manga/animes like Naruto (1999-2014) and Bleach (2001-2016) as well as My Hero Academia (2014-2024) which just ended last year,. I'm actually well aware it's serialized and not episodic.

Sorry for the misunderstanding, since it's getting repetitive as you've said, this is a joke I'll stop doing now. Never meant to come off as ignorant having it compared to Spongebob, Family Guy and The Simpsons.

SOME TITANIC SONIC MOVIE SPOILERS INCOMING

I'm already convinced that Sonic 4 is gonna be my favorite movie ever made.

If Eggman is out of the picture for now, then I'm sensing the Metal Sonic army will be an older prototype creation of his that is now running hedge-hog wild all around the place and will act as standalone villains for movie 4.

Then my big hope for movie 5 is a certain squad of extraterrestrials. And it's a longshot, but my pipe dream is that Paramount is brave enough to do what Sega is too afraid to do and give them a redemption arc or at least sympathetic/altruistic qualities to deepen their characters. C'mon, fashionista x emo boyo ship!
